Introduction More information For more information on hardware and software read the following: • AVT GigE Installation Manual describes the hardware installation proce- dures for AVT GigE cameras. Additionally, it includes safety instructions and information about camera interfaces (GigE port, PoE, I/O connectors, input and output).
Camera cleaning instructions Camera cleaning instructions This chapter describes safety instructions/cautions valid for Manta cameras in case of cleaning lenses, optical filters/protection glass or sensors. Note • Please read these instructions before you contact your AVT camera dealer for assistance. ...
Camera cleaning instructions Is it an impurity? – Identifying impurities If you observe any image artefacts in your video preview of your Manta camera you may have impurities either on the lens, filter/protection glass or, on the sensor protection glass. Every Manta camera gets cleaned prior to sealing and shipment;...
Camera cleaning instructions Figure 3: Removing IR cut filter/protection glass using special tool (E9020001) 3. If the impurity is neither on the lens nor the IR cut filter/protection glass, it is probably on the sensor. Cleaning Instructions Perform all cleaning operations (lenses, filter/protection glass, and sensor) in a dust-free clean-room.
Page 21
Camera cleaning instructions 3. Wipe the glass surface with a spiral motion from the center to the rim. Normally, several spiral wipes are recommended. Wipe only on glass avoiding contact to metal surfaces, because microscopic dirt could be released and could cause scratches on the glass.
Manta cameras have a Gigabit Ethernet interface. GigE GigE is the abbreviation for Gigabit Ethernet. All AVT Manta cameras are GigE Vision V1.2 compliant cameras with Gigabit Ethernet interface. AVT Manta cameras work with Gigabit Ethernet hardware and cable lengths up to 100 m.
Conformity Conformity Allied Vision Technologies declares under its sole responsibility that all stan- dard cameras of the AVT Manta family to which this declaration relates are in conformity with the following standard(s) or other normative document(s): • CE, following the provisions of 2004/108/EG directive (Manta board level cameras do not have CE) •...
Specifications Specifications Caution Before operating any AVT camera, read the safety instructions and ESD warnings in the AVT GigE Installation Manual. http://www.alliedvisiontec.com/emea/support/downloads/ product-literature/manta.html Note PoE capable cameras How can I distinguish between PoE capable cameras and cameras that are not PoE capable? PoE capable cameras have the letters PoE written on the camera’s label on the bottom side of the camera.

Page 117
Camera interfaces Triggering during the Readout State For applications requiring the fastest triggering cycle time whereby the camera image sensor is exposing and reading out simultaneously, then the User trigger signal should be applied as soon as a valid trigger Ready is detected. In this case, trigger Latency and trigger jitter can be up to 1 line time since exposure must always begin on an Interline boundary.

Description of the data path Color interpolation (Bayer demosaicing) The color sensors capture the color information via so-called primary color (R- G-B) filters placed over the individual pixels in a Bayer mosaic layout. An effective Bayer RGB color interpolation already takes place in all Manta color version cameras.
